The Principal Planning Officer reported the receipt of the comments of Ocle Pychard Parish Council.  The Sub-Committee was advised that the Parish Council had requested that other vehicle and lorry movements from the property also be included in the traffic management agreement.  Given the potential impact of traffic generated by the development, further works within the highway were proposed and included the provision of two passing bays, piping of a section of open ditch and minor works to some of the highway hedges.

Councillor R.M. Wilson, the Local Ward Member, commented on the need for the applicant to maintain the adjacent bridleway.  He also felt that existing traffic from the site should be included in the traffic management agreement.

The Principal Planning Officer outlined the responsibilities of landowners in respect of bridleways and drew attention to recommended condition 9 which would require the appropriate signage to safeguard the safety of users of the bridleway.  He also advised that a traffic management agreement could only be required in relation to the specific operation involved but an informative note could be added to highlight the preferred route for large vehicles.
